ADVANCED CONCERT modes
The ADVANCED CONCERT (Digital Signal Processing) modes allow you to transform your living room into a
variety of different sonic environments when playing either two-channel or multichannel sources. It optimizes its
effects in accordance with your speaker configuration, source and LISTENING CH SELECT choices.
CLASSICAL
Simulates the acoustic effects of a large concert hall. Suitable for classical music. A long delay time of
reflected sounds, coupled with reverb effects, let the listener experience the dynamic and rich sounds
characteristic of concert halls and powerful orchestral performances.
CHAMBER
Simulates the acoustic environment of a very resonant concert hall. Rich reverberation and a full sound
create the impression of a lively performance space.
JAZZ
Simulates the acoustic effects of a jazz club. Reflected sound is virtually below 100 msec so that the
listener can experience a live band effect.
ROCK
Simulates the acoustic effects of a mid-sized concert hall. The listener can experience a live band effect
with good separation of the instruments, a strong bass and the vivid feeling of a live performance.
DANCE
Simulates the acoustic effects of a dance club. Features a strong bass sound.
Reflected sound delay time is virtually below 50 msec, for the listener to experience the visceral power of
dance music.
X-CH STEREO
Simulates the acoustic environment of a regular stereo while using all the speakers in the system to induce
a rich, all-around sound. The display will change to 5CH STEREO or 7CH STEREO according to the sources,
